Journey with La Junta High School as they head “Under the Sea!”

Disney’s “The Little Mermaid, Jr.” comes to life in the La Junta High School auditorium Nov. 14-17.

This special version is custom tailored for younger audiences but loses none of the touching and exciting story that people know. Ariel longs to experience humanity and finds herself hopelessly in love with a handsome prince she saved from drowning. To be able to meet him, she needs to be able to walk with him. Only her Aunt Ursula, the sea witch, can help her with that but there’s a price.

What’s a girl in love to do?

Find out during the production at 7 p.m. Nov. 14-17. Tickets are $8 and can be purchased by calling the Box Office at 384-4467.

“This is a talented cast of actors,” said director Kelly Jo Smith. “I think everyone in the cast loves the story and for many of the actors, it is a Disney movie from their childhood.”Rehearsals are concentrating on learning the music and blocking the scenes.
